‘She Been Coming Through Since the Right Man Came Through’: Fans Say Angela Simmons Looks ‘Almost Unrecognizable’ In Latest Photos Since Dating Rapper Yo Gotti

Angela Simmons has been stepping on necks recently when it comes to her brilliant outfit choices. While the reality star’s dress game has heavily improved, many fans are convinced her boyfriend, rapper Yo Gotti, is the reason why. 

The mother of one showed out as she roamed the streets of New York in a black cropped graphic tee that read “KISS” across her chest area and a pair of white jeans that were meticulously cut out in the shape of a heart. 

Simmons paired her stylish ensemble together with a leather jacket, a black bag, and white boots that accurately matched the color of her jeans.

“You can tell she been in the south… but attitude still on New York,” she wrote for her caption. 

The 35-year-old’s upload received over 219,000 likes from fans and over 2,000 comments. 

Several fans hyped up Simmons’ choice of clothing, and a few fans even suggested that her style has greatly improved since she and Gotti stepped onto the scene as a couple. 

“Mr. Mims really leveled her up… she almost unrecognizable!”

“She been coming through since the right man came through [red heart]”

“Wheww lawd Gotti done put it on ya!!! He done brought out Angie buh bye Angela!”

This isn’t the first time fans have speculated that the “Down In the DMs” rapper was behind his lady’s seemingly new chic style. 

In early January, Simmons showed out in a two-piece set that reminded fans of actress Alicia Silverstone’s character in the ’90s hit rom-com “Clueless.”

Her classy photos prompted fans to bring up Gotti, implying that she was never this fashionable before him. 

Simmons’ has had some questionable outfit choices in the past. One outfit that raised the most questions was her farm fit back in August.

In a now-deleted Instagram post, Simmons was seen wearing a long-sleeved crop red-and-white top, with booty shorts, yellow Hunter boots, a green cap, and a green fanny pack.

Though Simmons’ intention was to spread positive vibes to those who were watching her video, a few people noted that they were too distracted by her unique ensemble to focus on anything else. 

Many fans even compared her outfit to the fictional character Waldo from “Where’s Waldo.”

While folks believe Gotti has influenced Simmons’, the Pastry shoe apparel co-owner has always advocated for self-love and doing things that please oneself. 

In July, the “Growing Up Hip Hop” star uploaded a video of her at a spa receiving a body scrub massage. As her video continued, fans can see that Simmons named this special journey “health n healing.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
